That's not usually how we do things.

It's better if Ulf apply the patches to an immutable branch and we
pull that into ARM SoC so they have the changes and then you
can remove it on top of that.

Another possibility is to let linux-next (and Torvalds) deal with the
conflict when the file gets removed in one pull request and
altered in another. In fact that is usually what we do.
